He visited Kodur Village, Andhra Pradesh and interacted with students from the tuition center, the tailoring center and the computer center. He also spent time in Vijayawada at the Peda Komera model school where #AmritaUniversity conducted workshops in robotics, computational thinking, vulnerability mapping and life skills last June in conjunction with the Andhra government (APSSDC).
His expertise areas include cognitive development and education, #TVET, and peer to peer learning. At Amrita, he inspired team members by his talk: “Teaching, Naturally.”
Dr. Strauss was also a key delegate at the announcement of the UNESCO Chair on Gender Equality an Women Empowerment for Amma’s Birthday celebration. It was a pleasure to have Dr. Strauss with us. His gentle temperament and fascinating storytelling and teaching skills kept everyone engaged and inspired. #pedagogy #peertopeer #motivation #teaching #21stCenturySkills
